What an epic comeback!
CLEVELAND, Ohio — Down by a pair late, the Guardians staged an improbable six-run rally Wednesday and upended the Tigers for an 8-4 win at Progressive field. Cleveland hitters struck out three straight times to open the bottom of the inning, and then went on to score six runs, all with two outs.Luke Maile sparked the comeback when he reached first base on a dropped third strike by Detroit catcher Eric Haase.
“How many times do you hear me say ‘Keep playing, keep playing?’” Francona said. “That was kind of the ultimate .” “Hitting is contagious,” Kwan said. “There’s a little suspense that comes with it, too. We always think that we’re in it, and it just takes one guy to get it going. Hitting is contagious, barrels or outs. We got some lucky balls to fall. That’s just baseball. But we got on top.”
Quantrill avoided suffering his first career loss at Progressive Field, exiting after the sixth when Cleveland trailed by three runs. Quantrill allowed four runs on five hits and struck out a pair in his 27th career appearance at the ballpark. Gonzalez put Cleveland in front with an RBI double in the third after Norris hit Ramírez. It was the sixth hit on the homestand for Gonzalez and his 20th hit in August, tying him for fourth most for the month in the American League.
